Steinberg, has been given the coveted American Idol lead-in on the Fox network for 2010. American Idol has ranked #1 in the Nilesen Ratings for five consecutive seasons. The programing decision is part of the network's midseason schedule, which lays out the lineup to April. Human Target stars Mark "Boston Legal" Valley as the DC Comics character, created in 1972, by writer Len Wein and illustrator Carmine Infantino, as detective/bodyguard 'Christopher Chance' who impersonates clients to eliminate threats, becoming the human target. Writer Peter Milligan and illustrator Edvin Biukovic revived the character in 1999 for a four-issue limited series followed by the graphic novel "Human Target: Final Cut", an ongoing series that lasted 21 issues.
